Playing Career

Club(s)
Began his career with the Barnsley FC youth academy, signing professional forms in December 2011. His talent was noted by David Moyes, who inadvertently made Stones his final signing at Everton FC on 31 January 2013 for £3 million. Then, despite being heavily linked with a £44 million move to Chelsea FC throughout the 2015 summer transfer window. Everton remained resilient, despite a transfer request. However, on 8 August 2016, Stones did leave when he joined Manchester City FC for £47.5 million, a new British record fee for a defender.
